Letter from the executive director

Building business. Serving community needs.

In 2016, Boston’s design community was galvanized into action by a booming regional economy,

a city government actively planning for change, a quest for social equity, and a contested national

election. By the year’s end, we had entered a time of reinvigorated commitments and forward

momentum.

The Boston Society of Architects/AIA (BSA) presented an agenda early in January 2016. One of its

key topics—housing—not only provided rich content for professional development, but provided an

opportunity to collaborate as never before with the BSA Foundation

(Foundation) on initiatives that brought volunteer design professionals

together with kids, families, neighborhood activists, community

partners, and elected officials to explore tangible design possibilities

across Greater Boston.

Acknowledged by both boards as a 2016 topic of focus, the BSA

+ BSA Foundation used every tool at their disposal to take on the

challenge of housing. From design exhibitions, to community

charrettes, to youth programs, to a developer/architect competition,

to technical conversations among committees, to a dedicated issue

of ArchitectureBoston magazine—together, the BSA + BSA Foundation

moved the needle on providing actionable ways to introduce more well-designed dwellings into

every neighborhood in Greater Boston. Find details on page 10.

Throughout the year, flagship and new BSA + BSA Foundation programs provided wide ranging

content to multiple audiences—members, donors, walk in visitors, other partakers of our public and

professional programs. Whether tailored to the AEC professional seeking career advancement;

children acquiring design education; communities seeking the design process; or coalitions

interested in addressing urban infrastructure, BSA + BSA FoundAtion progrAmS provided

unpArAlleled opportunitieS For everyone with A StAke in BoSton’S Built

environment And the people who inhABit it. While many of these programs took place at

BSA Space many others were hosted at partner sites in the community, to increase our chances of

reaching everyone in Greater Boston, and many took place in November at our lsrgest annual event,

the conference and tradeshow, ABX.

Amid an ambitious schedule of programs, 2016 was also a time of introspection for both

organizations. The BSA launched a multi-year task force to investigate viable business models for its

future. And the BSA Foundation pushed ahead with conceptualizing the next phase of a strategic

plan to guide the fulfillment of its mission and vision. Together, these boards fine-tuned a path for

sharing resources and civic resolve.

Finally, while some were pleased with the results of the 2016 national presidential and

congressional election, many in our community were stunned. During a time that might have been

polarizing, BSA + BSA Foundation leadership seized the opportunity to reassert each organization’s

commitment to core values. For the BSA/AIA, that meant reasserting those values in an open letter

to the membership, and setting the stage for further dialog within the community. Together with

the BSA Foundation, it meant pursuing with even greater vigor the goal to build a better Boston for

everyone. Read on for highlights.

Programs, events, exhibitions, engagement

Reaching multiple audiencesPrograms at BSA Space have this year included book talks, lectures, a film series, curator talks, design charrettes, and networking events. Youth events included monthly FAmily

deSign dAyS, kidSBuild!, ACe mentoring For high SChoolS students, teen architecture workshops, home school classes, and school and camp visits. The deSigning BoSton series held in the Fort Point room drew large crowds. This year it featured discussions on the design of City Hall, Northern Avenue Bridge, and Boston Creates, the city’s cultural plan. All of these programs were filmed by WGBH and are available on their Forum Network. Two public forums were held as part of an annual urBAn deSign workShop, which this year focused on the planning of Suffolk Downs. Additional talks were given on citizen engagement, urban identify by the mayor of Nashville, and the rebuilding the American city, among other topics.

Exhibitions included gloBAl Citizen: the ArChiteCture oF moShe SAFdie, which opened in March and drew large crowds throughout its run. The opening reception for Global Citizen was attended by Safdie, cellist Yo Yo Ma, and rising MIT design star, Neri Oxman. The exhibition featured 20+ large-scale models which filled BSA Space as well as Waterfront Square. Related programs included a FAmily deSign dAy and a film about Safdie’s work. extrAordinAry plAySCApeS opened in June and was supported by programs that featured lectures and panel discussions with experts in design and child development. Family and child attendance for Extraordinary Playscapes continued to grow throughout the summer. A “Playground Passport” associated with the exhibition promoted actual play spaces in the neighborhoods of Boston, enforcing the BSA Space brand, while driving attendance.

Other exhibitions included hAymArket: Soul oF the City, CAnStruCtion, and one room

mAnSion, which explored compact living as a viable and necessary 21st-century residential dwelling type. one room mAnSion included access to the uhü: urBAn houSing unit (pronounced “yoo-hoo”)—developed by the BSA in partnership with the Mayor’s Housing Innovation Lab, Livelight, and the BSA Foundation. During the holiday season, the 5th gingerBreAd Competition And exhiBition again delighted passersby and Boston’s media outlets with follies created by the region’s best and brightest design firms. In the StoreFront gAllery, panels focused on other Boston neighborhorhoods expanded the scope and significance of the 3D model.

Civic initiatives bring the profession and the public together to focus on the urban realm

Designing Boston This series provides a forum to discuss current trends and concerns in architecture and urban planning that may shape Boston’s future. In 2016, Designing Boston topics included "Placemaking Decoded," "Boston Creates," and “Northern Avenue Bridge.”

Northern Avenue Bridge Ideas Competition In partnership with the City of Boston, the BSA + BSA Foundation extended a broad invitation for anyone to submit ideas--in words, images, or models--of the best and highest use for this iconic urban connector.

Urban Design Workshops These workshops provide a valuable resource to public agencies and major property owners by providing big-picture design thinking that supports larger planning and public outreach processes. Public presentations set the stage and relay the results. Professionals gather between the two events to address the challenge. The topic in 2016 was “Suffolks Downs.” See the team proposals.

BSA + BSA Foundation focus on Housing

Building on the 2015 Urban Design Workshop focused on Housing, in 2016 the BSA + the BSA Foundation focused its powerful toolkit on one of the Boston's most urgent topics: Housing. A few examples of integrated programming include:

ABX housing track Nine sessions focused on housing at ABX

ArchitectureBoston issue Domicile

Design exhibition One Room Mansion

Community roadshow The uhü (urban housing unit) is a prototype of a new modular housing concept, intended to serve as a model and conversation-starter for the future of housing in Boston. It was designed by LiveLight and the Boston Society of Architects/AIA in partnership with the Mayor’s Housing Innovation Lab and the BSA Foundation, and before joining One Room Mansion as an interactive exhibition, toured six Boston communities where feedback was gathered at a variety of events, including workshops for kids and families.

Design happenings in the Garrison Trotter Neighborhood In May, a community design charrette in the Garrison Trotter Neighborhood of Roxbury invited residents to explore the concept of small living units. Later, with the City of Boston's Housng Innovation Lab, the BSA + BSA Foundation held a competition in which teams of developers and architects worked on small unit project concepts that will eventually be built.

BSA Leaders set out an agenda

In January, BSA President Tamara Roy AIA presented an overview on micro-housing and its potential to address the affordability crisis in Boston and then shared her plans to continue this engagement through a variety of 2016 BSA programs and events. Roy also introduced four key areas for board focus in 2016 and invited board members to select a team to participate on and lead the discussion at future board meetings:

• Housing—particularly affordable, workforce housing. • Design Excellence—establishing criteria for design excellence and outreach to public

and private sectors engaged in the designer selection.• Civic Vision—dentifying initiatives that employ design ideas in ways that positively affect

individuals, communities, and entire city systems.• BSA Future—an investigation into key areas and ideas to ensure the long-term growth

and orginaziational success of the BSA.

Film Series For those who like the smell of buttery popcorn, the fizz of a cold beer, and a

great movie, BSA Space became a go-to location the first Friday of every month for a series

of design-related films. From documentaries on historic preservation, building tiny houses, or

futuristic sci-fi film noirs, these films entertained audiences while broadening appreciation and

understanding of design.

"As 2016 President of the Boston Society of Architects I have a bully

pulpit to engage agencies and non-profit developers to tackle

this conundrum of the lack of middle income housing, doing pilot projects, and exposing the work of

many other hard working architects in our region."

"Over the next few years, the BSA Foundation

will continue its work of reaching a wider public audience and doing things that have a greater

public benefit. This way, we can more effectively spread the word about the transformative power

of design. With the help of some of our newest Trustees (and Vice Chair Laura Wernick FAIA), we have done some strategic thinking this past year

to help us focus our mission and make what we do clearer to a public audience.

"Our mission comes down to two things: Sharing our ideas, and sharing our talents."
